Everyone at one point in their life was a child, with a dream to create. That is why MAKO was so thrilled to be invited on by Frito-Lay to work with these young inventors on the Dreamvention competition. Families are given the chance to work together using their imaginations to solve a problem in everyday life for a chance to win $250, 000. MAKO’s top invention services were put to good use in developing the 5 finalists’ ideas in the inaugural 2018 year, and we look forward to doing it again in 2019!
